As one of the classic examples of gene regulation the trp-operon in E. coli is the prime model for transcription attenuation regulating tryptophan synthesis.
To synthesize Tryptophan this operon is regulated by two distinct mechanisms, firstly a tryptophan repressor and secondly transcription attenuation.
In this video you will learn how the DNA binding affinity of the tryptophan repressor will regulation the trp operon and how transcription attenuation is able to form exclusive secondary structures to regulate the trp operon as a second layer of regulation
How is it done? Just find it out in under 15 minutes.
